Tesla adds ‘driving an electric tunnel boring machine’ to its referral program ‘secret levels’

[Morgen]

[QUOTE]The prizes of Tesla’s referral programs used to be pretty similar in each of its rounds. A new set of wheels, a Powerwall, an invite to the company’s latest event, but in the latest round, Tesla added “secret levels” unlocked only when all your referrals are delivered.
...
The first level is 2% discount on a Founder Series next-gen Roadster, which hasn’t even been unveiled or announced for production yet, for every new referral.

And now the second secret level prize is driving The Boring Company’s electric boring machine:

‘Drive an Electric Boring Machine. You’ve unlocked the second secret level. Refer 5 more friends to drive an electric tunnel boring machine with The Boring Company in Hawthorne, Ca.”[/QUOTE]

Will they play that Duke Nukem 3D demonic "Secret level" line when you unlock them?

That doesn't sound too exciting.

You could even say it might be the opposite of fun.

When tunnels are involved the only way to go is down.

Driving a MASSIVE tunnel boring machine sounds like a blast.

It's not. Its top speed is around 15 cm/minute at best, though it might go as fast as 20 cm/minute. And those numbers are for free movement, not through the soil.
